G20 Toronto

Yesterday evening, I stepped outside my house and suddenly saw police formed a line and blocked my way to Queen st.

I was behind the line at first. When one cop saw me, he very rudely told me to go to the front of the police line. I complied and found myself and dozens others including journalists surrounded by police. I tried to go back home but police wouldn’t allow me. So I stayed.
